"That is not fair. I came because I was worried about you."

    Nathaniel's PovThe courtroom was smaller than I expected and the gallery was full which told me the press had been following the hearing schedule closely and I sat behind the defense table next to my lawyer and watched Evangeline walk in wearing a gray blazer over her prison clothes because her lawyer had arranged for her to change before the hearing.She sat down at the defense table and did not look at me right away and when she finally did she held my gaze for a second and then turned to face the front of the room.She looked tired but composed and that was the right way to look.The judge came in and everyone stood and then sat again and the prosecutor stood up and started.His name was Aldridge and he was in his forties and he spoke the way people speak when they have done this a hundred times and are not nervous about any of it."Your Honor we are asking that bail remain deni
